Melting wax ....

As far as I know there are 5 "interesting" libraries on UBM. Two of them posted here already and off we go with a third. Icarus by David Rosenstein. Mr Rosenstein is just another Ralph Haldenby, I suppose. Nobody else but Uwe Buschkötter and his crew... most of the tracks were written by famous german jazzman Manfred Schoof. And so the record is in fact a little jazzy. First track - Weather Report, if that doesn't give a direction? Well actually they're going many directions again on this one. Excellent Jazz Funk and Fusion is one of them, of course. But also some cosmic electronics and to my personal pleasure some ambient tunes as well. Check out Nucleus on the B-Side. Doesn't the synth sound exactly like on Skyracer? And don't you think that Icarus might be a sequel of Skyracer, thematically?
Nuff talk - time for a listen. Link in the comments.
Cheers, Basso

hello odinoz, of course this is just a personal rating and you might find other interesing LPs on UBM. the other 2 that i really like are COMPUTER ENERGY by Uwe Buschkötter and MEDITATION by Manfred Schoof. You can find Meditation on Itunes!I forgot to mention Manfred Schoof's POWER STATION - also really good stuff!

Thanks for posting this. ... I cannot get the .zip file opened. Peazip (the program I'm using) says there are errors in the file or that it's password protected. The resulting files are truncated or contain no data. Could you please check whether the .zip file is ok? and/or reup this? Thanks!
